Norwich City boss Alex Neil has claimed that Newcastle United will be under pressure in their Premier League clash at St James' Park.
The Magpies are yet to win a game in the top flight this season, which has left them bottom of the table and put manager Steve McClaren's position under scrutiny.
Norwich lost in their last outing to Leicester City, and Neil has insisted that his side have to take advantage of Newcastle's plight to get back to winning ways.
"I think it probably applies more pressure to them rather than anything else, having not won and certainly being at home as well. There will be a lot of pressure from their fans for them to go and win the game," Neil told the club's official website.
"We're desperate to win the game as well, so we need to make sure that we approach it properly. If we can do as well as we can, then we've got a good chance.
"They'll be very similar to Derby County when Steve was there. They're quite expansive when they've got the ball, and it's going to be an open match I think. Hopefully we can come out on top."
Norwich face Newcastle on Sunday.
